Silent-Yachts launches Silent Tender 400

November 24, 2022
2:01 pm

The Austrian-owned builder of solar-electric catamarans has expanded its portfolio with its first electric tender.

Silent-Yachts has launched the Silent Tender 400, which has an overall length of 4m (13ft) and features an electric drivetrain. Design cues from the Silent 60 and 80 solar-electric catamarans include the angular lines, rebated bulwark, and black-and-white finish.

A carbon-fibre lay-up ensures the hull of the sporty-looking tender weighs no more than 90kg, making it easier to lift out using the hydraulic bathing platform of a Silent 60, easier for the mother ship to carry and more efficient in terms of performance.

Michael Köhler, founder and CEO of Silent-Yachts, said: “We are very proud to present the new Silent Tender 400, which is one of the most efficient electric tenders on the market. It follows the same design principles as our award-winning electric yachts, with dimensions that enable it to fit both the Silent 60 series and Silent 80 series yachts. The hull gives passengers a really dry ride, even at speed and in confused seas.”

Designed to carry six people, the Silent Tender 400 was conceived for the Silent 60, although the model is available to anyone looking for an electric runabout or an efficient tender for a conventional yacht.

The tender has a central console and intuitive controls including a throttle, leather-padded wheel and a display showing speed, heading and depth. The driver’s seat is flanked by two other seats and there are two bow seats, all with handholds. Boarding is via a step in the lowered bulwarks midships.

Owners can choose between various inboard and outboard propulsion options. Inboard power comes via a 20kW electric waterjet, offering low draught and ease of handling. With the sportier outboard, input power is either 20kW or 30kW, depending on the package selected. The higher-rated motor can propel the boat over 20 knots.

The Silent Tender 400 fits either a standard 16kWh lithium battery or an upgraded 20kWh unit for more range, with a minimum of two hours’ drive time at 10 knots. Fast on-board charging can replenish the battery in just 2½ hours.

Silent-Yachts is also developing a 5.1m electric tender, designed to fit the garage of the Silent 80 seriesyachts.

Around the Island Race attracts over 220 entries

November 24, 2022
1:32 pm

This year’s Sun Hung Kai & Co Around the Island Race featured 224 entries in 14 classes and required 24 consecutive starts.

Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club’s Sun Hung Kai & Co. Around the Island Race, Hong Kong’s biggest annual sailing event, featured an impressive entry list of 224 boats from 14 classes including seven one-design classes, Sportsboats, HKPN, IRC, dinghies and beach catamarans.

It took two start lines set off Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club’s Kellett Island Clubhouse and 24 consecutive starts to get the fleet away for the 26nm circumnavigation of Hong Kong Island, with 207 boats completing the race and over 50 volunteers helping out during the day.

The SHK Scallyway Fuku Orma 60 trimaran was the last starter at 11.10am, 10 minutes behind its smaller opponent, the Nigel Irens 40 trimaran, Carbon 3. The smallest boat competing in the race, the single-handed RS Aero 7 skippered by Stefan Lecher, headed off at 8.40am.

The youngest participant of the race was Danielle Law, just 2½ years old, who took part in her first Around the Island Race on boar Ding Dong with her five-year-old brother Sean and her father Dominic.

The day started in 8-10 knots of north-easterly breeze off the start line. The fleet made their way up the island side of the Hong Kong Harbour, avoiding exclusion zones for Hong Kong’s busy marine traffic and then made their way out through the Lei Yue Mun Gap. Kites were hoisted out of the Gap, where the fleet compressed as the wind lightened off to an easterly breeze of around six knots.

By Shek O and the approaches to Cape D’Aguilar, Nim Ye’s J92s Delight was in the lead with the breeze starting to pick up again to 10 knots. However, Rune Jacobsen’s J/80 Jamminsoon took over the lead, passing through the Stanley Gate at 12.40pm, with the 29ers right behind them.

In the meantime, things were also hotting up at the back of the fleet as SHK Scallywag Fuku powered up and started working her way through the armada of yachts, leading the fleet through the Cyberport Gate nine minutes later and the Sandy Bay club mark four minutes later by 12.53pm.

With the fleet under kite from Cape D’Aguilar experiencing consistent conditions, Race Officer David Norton confirmed the race would make the full circumnavigation with the finish off Kellett Island.

Spared the typical Cyberport park-up, the majority of the fleet had converged on Green Island by 3.00pm before they started the last challenging section of the course – negotiating the tricky beat through the harbour to the finish.

In what was to be a quick race for all, the David Witt-skippered SHK Scallyway Fuku took the fasted elapsed time of 2h 25m 21s, just short of the race record of 2h 13m 11s established by Aberdeen Extreme 40 in 2013.

The big winners of the day were Noel Chan’s TP52 Rampage 88, followed by another TP52 Phoenix owned by Robert Wiest/Victor Ku and David Ho and Patrick Pender’s VX One Serendipity.

For the HKPN division, Niccolo Manno’s Carbon 3 trimaran took the win, followed by Bridget Chan’s Ker 11.3 Minnie the Moocher and Raymond Yip’s Beneteau First 44.7 Harpseal in third place.

Race Officer David Norton was satisfied with the steady conditions. “Unlike the ‘feast and famine’ conditions that we see most years, the 2022 Around the Island Race had a consistent 8-12 knots around the whole course,” Norton said. “Great sailing conditions along the Lamma channel, with the only real soft spot around the Green Island mark.”

The outgoing tide helped most of the fleet through Lei Yue Mun, but the payback was a strong adverse current in the western harbour on the 3½ mile beat back from Green Island mark to the finish.

Pearl appoints VP Yachts in Hong Kong

November 24, 2022
1:30 am

The British-owned luxury yacht builder has expanded its global network of dealers by appointing VP Yachts, headed by Vivian Chan.

Vivian Chan of VP Yachts and Iain Smallridge of Pearl

Pearl Yachts has reached an agreement with VP Yachts to represent the British brand in Hong Kong. Featuring exterior design by Bill Dixon and interiors by Kelly Hoppen, Pearl models include the 62, 80, flagship 95 and the new 72, which had its world premiere at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show at the end of October.

VP Yachts was founded by Director Vivian Chan, who is also General Manager of the Sun Hing Shipyard, owned by her family.

Chan said: “The cultural bond we share is undeniable. The style of Pearl Yachts’ instantly recognisable flybridge motor yachts fits perfectly with the tastes in our local market, with British allure and a neutral, sober colour palette a winning proposal to our market.

VP Yachts is positioned to leverage generational connections in local yachting that go beyond even my lifetime involvement through the family business, so we are excited to see the heights we can reach together.”

Iain Smallridge, Managing Director of Pearl, added: “We always celebrate growth and new friends, especially in affluent and interesting markets, but to see our British brand now properly entering Hong Kong, uniting two seafaring cultures with shared history, is a source of special satisfaction.

VP Yachts have just what Pearl needs to succeed in a competitive market, with an educated, international approach to growth. Vivian heads a shipyard herself, so gives me full confidence that she understands not only her side but also ours, which is invaluable in this partnership.”

Thailand Charter Week enjoys Ministry, TAT support

November 17, 2022
5:13 pm

The second Thailand Charter Week at Phuket Yacht Haven launched on Wednesday with the support of the Ministry of Tourism and Sports, and Tourism Authority of Thailand.

Mr Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, Thailand’s Minister of Tourism and Sports, has thrown his personal support behind the second edition of Thailand Charter Week, which is also sponsored by the Tourism Authority of Thailand and organised by the Thai Yachting Business Association.

Ms Thapanee Kiatphaibool, Deputy Governor for Domestic Marketing, Tourism Authority of Thailand, and Mr Narong Woonsiew, the Governor of Phuket, were also among senior government officials who attended the opening day of the Thailand Charter Week at Phuket Yacht Haven. The event was first held in late 2019, with the second edition delayed until now due to the pandemic.

Mr Phiphat being interviewed at Phuket Yacht Haven

On Wednesday afternoon, government officials and VIPs cruised on three of the exhibiting superyachts: the 34m Xanadu, built by Dutch shipyard Moonen, the 39m Indiana and the 30m Mia Kai, both built by Turkey’s Bilgin Yachts. In the evening, they attended the event’s official opening ceremony at Yacht Haven’s The Deck restaurant, which overlooks the marina.

“Thailand Charter Week 2022 is a fabulous marketing platform that works well with Thailand’s strategic marine tourism plan. This luxury yachting event will help promote Thailand as a marine tourism destination, offering premium charter yachts and superyachts to international and domestic charter brokers,” said Mr Phiphat.

Mr Phiphat viewing the 34m Xanadu

“Yachting will be one of the key mechanisms for restoring the economy by tourism. The Ministry of Tourism and Sports gives its full support to this event in term of sponsorship and will promote this event through our domestic and international media channels.”

Mr Phiphat spoke about the cooperation with the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), which exhibits at major boat shows in Monaco, Cannes, Fort Lauderdale, Dubai and Sydney, as the country seeks to revive tourism following a quiet couple of years in the pandemic era.

The Thailand Charter Week runs from November 16-19

“We’re working with our international TAT office to promote and advertise the country’s stunning yachting destinations,” Mr Phiphat said. “Additionally, we have a ‘road show’ exhibiting at major yacht shows in Europe, US and other regions, which play an integral part in promoting Thailand as a yachting destination to the international market.”

Mr Phiphat also commented on some major yachting projects in Phuket, including the upcoming superyacht marina in Port Macchanu, which will be able to haul out superyachts for services, repairs and maintenance.

Ditapong Thitadilok, President, Thai Yachting Business Association

“It’s great that private companies are interested in developing marine infrastructure. Thailand needs more marinas, especially superyacht marinas. This will increase our capabilities to become ‘Asia’s yachting hub’,” Mr Phiphat said.

“Superyacht shipyards are still a missing piece of the puzzle, as they help enable superyachts to stay in Thailand long term. They need an international-standard service facility and the Port Macchanu marina will be a big move for Thailand.

“Thailand will benefit from superyachts staying long term because most of their annual expenses will spread through the local economy, creating jobs for local people.”

Participating yachts will be on display at Yacht Haven for inspections from 10am-6pm on the Thursday and Friday (November 17-18). On the Saturday (November 19), selected yachts will host guests as they take a tour of nearby Bay.

Asiamarine parades ‘transformer’ yachts at Marina Cove

November 17, 2022
3:30 pm

Galeon motor yachts, Bali sail catamarans and a Nimbus motorboat featured at the three-day Asiamarine Boat Show in Hong Kong. By Nicholas Kunz.

Eric Noyel (fourth left) and the Asiamarine team

A spectacular fleet of highly innovative ‘transformer’-type boats captivated visitors to the Asiamarine Boat Show at Club Marina Cove in Sai Kung.

Asiamarine displayed each brand’s unique and innovative designs, which included high-tech drop-down doors and balconies, rotating sofas which could have come straight from a spy movie, plus a few more surprises that delighted those lucky enough to go onboard.

Galeon 510 Sky’s Asia debut

Making its Asia debut was the Galeon 510 Sky, the largest boat on display. The 510 Sky builds on Galeon’s popular 500 Fly by combining a coupe and flybridge into one appealing package, creating a sporty and futuristic look not commonly seen in Asia.

The rotating cockpit sofa

The 510 has a lot of gadgets including a flexible bow area and fully rotating aft cockpit sofa. However, it’s the brand’s signature drop-down sides and the creation of a waterside bar that has become Galeon’s most notable transformer-like feature.

Eric Noyel, founder and CEO of Asiamarine, said: “The Galeon 510 is very appealing to customers. Not only do Galeon come up with appealing concepts but they also make them work. It is one thing to have an idea; it is another thing to have an idea and to execute it well.”

Enjoying the waterside bar

The Frenchman added: “I think for Galeon, ‘Transformers’ are a great way to describe them. So much cleverness in each boat and you keep discovering new features. For the first two months after you get one, you will keep discovering something new every place you look.”

Galeon 400 Fly

The second Galeon on display was the Galeon 400 Fly or ‘Mini Transformer’ (click for Review), which is the brand’s smallest flybridge model to feature the drop-down sides in the beach mode.

The Bali 4.8 (click for Review), the French builder’s second-biggest model, also has a few exciting tricks up its sleeve. Well-known for its ability to maximise space and comfort, the builder again features its ‘Bali door’, which folds directly into the ceiling in just a few seconds, converting the saloon and aft cockpit into one connected, covered area.

The Bal catamarans at Marina Cove

“Bali catamarans are smart in terms of being like a house on water. They are very easy to maintain and these days there are no better value boats than this. If you want to spend time on a boat in a nice environment, nothing beats a cat or a Bali in particular,” said Eric Noyel, owner of the customised Bali 4.8 on display.

“Bali are really designed for the purpose of venturing the day out to sea. You will never beat the world record of sailing but you will beat the world record of having a nice day on the boat and that is what we aim for.”

With the ‘Bali door’ raised

The other Bali at Marina Cove was the Catspace (click for Review), a 40-footer, which features brand signatures like the retractable cockpit door, plus a fun flybridge accessible by stairways on both starboard and port, and up to 10 berths.

The Nimbus T8 with Tomato Red seating

Also on display was the Nimbus T8, a 26ft speedboat built in Sweden. Although a smaller boat focused on speed and agility for day-to-day activities, the T8 can be bent and ‘transformed’ in more ways than one as a reversible driver’s seat and a mounted retractable table can produce a dining area for five people in three easy movements.

Asiamarine has represented Nimbus since 2021 and is a Nimbus T11 is among its yachts at the 2022 Thailand Charter Week.

The British builder will stage the world premiere of the S72, European premiere of the Y85 and Boot debuts of the X80 and brand-new F65.

CGI of Princess S72

Princess Yachts is planning to exhibit seven yachts at Boot Dusseldorf from January 21-29, 2023, as the world’s biggest indoor boat and watersports show returns to the calendar for the first time since January 2020. Princess will exhibit at stand B21 in Hall 6, which is dedicated to large luxury motor yacht builders.

The highlight of the British builder’s display – traditionally one of the largest at the event – will be the world premiere of the S72, the second-biggest model in the S Class behind the popular S78.

Designed by the Princess Design Studio with naval architects Olesinski and Italian design house Pininfarina, the S72 features sleek styling and full-length hull windows. Featuring a resin-infused deep-V hull and fitted with twin 1,650hp or 1,800hp MAN V12 engines, the S72 can reach up to 36 knots.

“After a three-year hiatus due to the pandemic, Princess are thrilled to once again welcome customers and visitors back to the stand to experience this year’s stunning display, including the launch of the S72,” Princess stated.

Princess Y85

The line-up will also include the European premiere of the Y85 (click for article), the second-biggest model in the Y Class range of large flybridge motor yachts, only behind the recently launched Y95.

The builder’s Boot Dusseldorf debuts include the X80 and the F65, the new F Class flagship that had its world premiere at the Southampton International Boat Show in September. The other yachts on display comprise the V40 cruiser, F45 flybridge yacht and S62 sportbridge yacht.

Azimut’s new Magellano flagship puts the romance into travel

News / yachtstyle2020

Azimut’s new Magellano flagship puts the romance into travel

November 16, 2022
11:01 am

The Italian builder’s new models in 2022 include the new Magellano 30M, with designers Ken Freivokh and Vincenzo De Cotiis taking their work to a new scale.

The new Magellano 30M is the series flagship

Azimut’s new Magellano 30M reunites Ken Freivokh and Vincenzo De Cotiis following their design collaboration on the Magellano 25M, which was launched in 2020 and had its Asia debut in Hong Kong in mid-2021 through Azimut Yachts Hong Kong, a branch of dealer Marine Italia.

Deemed one of Azimut’s most important series by company founder Paolo Vitelli, the Magellano line was conceived in 2007, inspired by the culture of trawlers designed for long-range voyages but interpreted with a contemporary twist.

Ken Freivokh designed the exterior

The new Magellano superyachts meet the needs of owner who love “travel and discovery”, with two speed modes, the latest-generation high-efficiency hull and a sophisticated design outside and in. And the Magellano 30M takes it to a new scale, with an overall length of 29.7m (97ft 6in), a beam of 7.1m and a full-load draft of 2.05m (6ft 8in).

The Dual Mode hull by P.L. Ausonio Naval Architecture (P.L.A.N.A.) and Azimut’s R&D Department is optimised to perform efficiently at both lower speeds and planing at higher speeds, with the Magellano 30M reaching up to 20 knots with twin 1,550hp MAN engines.

The foredeck area is on the upper deck

Freivokh, who has vast experience in both sailing and motor yachts, oversaw the concept and exterior design. Working with a hull featuring impressive volumes, the UK-based American created a sleek superstructure, the distinguishing feature of this crossover coupe, while the elegant lateral teak louvres have become the brand’s signature.

Other key features include the vertical bow, the imposing hull sides and the protected walkways running alongside extensive glazed surfaces – over 70sqm – through which light pours into every interior setting.

Clear views from the cockpit or ‘infinity terrace’

De Cotiis, an architect and designer whose work features in the Carpenters Workshop Gallery, made his yachting debut with the Magellano 25M and the Italian returns with another luxurious interior based on irregular geometries.

For the first time on a yacht this size, the main deck offers a 270-degree view of the sea, also a tribute to the engineering work by Azimut’s Technical Office, which designed a low-profile ventilation system to ensure uninterrupted views.

De Cotiis has designed another distinct interior

De Cotiis designed the furnishings to be half height, to allow full view of the sea and sky. The same focus is also found in the cockpit seating, designed to allow the eyes to roam the horizon beyond the infinity terrace and its transparent parapet.

Aft view of the dining area and saloon

The single helm station is located on the upper deck, leaving space on the main deck for the generous lounge flooded with natural light, plus the full-beam owner’s suite with floor-to-ceiling windows.

De Cotiis again works with ‘artistic fibreglass’

In the saloon, guests are not only captured by the asymmetric layout and geometries but also De Cotiis’ material of choice: artistic fibreglass. A construction material for Azimut is an aesthetic resource for the visionary designer, with lamination and the injection of powders and colours turning it into a precious material.

Entrance to the owner’s suite

The spacious saloon is yet another expression of the Magellano’s philosophy of conviviality, with sofas suggesting rhythm and flow while separating the living zone from the lunch area and the central bar and seating unit.

The owner’s suite features full-height windows

Forward on the main deck, mirror-clad cupboards and Cipollino marble-framed portholes make the entrance to the airy owner’s suite one of the most striking corners of the yacht, where full-height windows and a hanging vanity top provide a privileged and private view of the sea.

The flybridge aft of the sky lounge

A stairway leads up to the interior sky lounge and out through aft doors to the stern terrace, which has a sheltered dining zone with a relaxation corner, an American bar with sea view, and a sun pad.
